Alex, Jane and Team
Valencia, Spain, is an absolute dream destination for photographers. It offering a mix of historic charm, modern architecture, and stunning natural landscapes.
Our weekend will include shooting street and architecture in the historic centre as well as local neighbourhoods. It's a mix of old-world charm and youthful energy, with graffiti, cozy cafes, and local workshops. We will also head to de la Seda, a UNESCO World Heritage site with its Gothic architecture and stunning interiors. The narrow streets and vibrant colors of the old town are perfect for street photography.
We'll be shooting long exposure at the incredible City of Arts and Sciences, an architectural masterpiece that offers endless opportunities for creative shots. This is the place to experiment with reflections and create some magical images. Valencia's blend of history, modernity, and nature makes it an ideal location. Whether you're into street photography, architectural shots, landscapes, or long exposure this city has it all.
